I'm seeing the same problem on a fresh install of Xubuntu 16.04 on my
Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Yoga.

Title:
  Palm detection  does not work on synaptics touchpad

Status in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am unable to type properly on the Dell xps 13 2015 model (Ubuntu
  vivid)  without first disabling "click to touch" in settings. The
  cursor jumps to wherever the mouse pointer is and starts typing from
  that point. Currently I cant type even three words straight without
  the third word getting inserted somewhere in between the earlier words
  or entire paragraphs getting deleted because of auto-selection...

  I tried setting  PalmMinZ=100 in
  /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-synaptics.conf but no luck after a reboot.
  According to this page :  http://xps13-9333.appspot.com/#touchpad
  this was fixed in kernel 3.16 but I am on kernel 3.19 and the problem
  still exists.
